Neil Young has made a dramatic U-turn and will now allow his Glastonbury set to be aired on the BBC.
The 79-year-old music legend is one of the festival’s major headliners this year, joining a star-studded line-up that includes Sir Rod Stewart and Nile Rodgers.
Earlier this week, it was reported that Neil had requested his performance not be broadcast live on TV.
However, in a surprise move, the BBC has now confirmed that his highly anticipated set will, in fact, be shown.
A BBC spokesperson said: ‘We are delighted to confirm that Neil Young’s headline set from Glastonbury on Saturday will be broadcast live to audiences across the UK on the BBC.’
It will be on iPlayer’s Pyramid Stage stream from 10pm, as well as BBC Two and Radio 2.
